Never thought I'd see this happen in America. Sad and scary.

Or the cellphone that the Buick driver is trying to text on while doing 60 through a school zone.......More Humans are killed by cars, where do I find the red line diagram to cut up a Buick Lucerne?
No. An ex post facto law criminalizes past behavior. What they are doing with the bump stock ban is criminalizing future possession (after March 26, 2019).Ex post facto comes to mind ......
Clearly, you are not familiar with Prohibition. This is not the first time something has been declared contraband (thus having zero value and so making the "takings clause" moot).

I'm against the bump stock ban. But calling it an "ex post facto" law isn't going to work as a means of challenging it. The crime will be continued possession after March 26. That's not ex post facto. None of the lawsuits challenging the ban are calling it "ex post facto." Lawyers know better.The ATF has effectively singled out every owner of a bump stock by this new rule, transforming them into criminals based upon their *mere* possession, regardless of whether that device had before-hand been lawfully possessed and regardless of whether ATF itself previously determined the device does not to have the capability of converting a firearm into a prohibited “machinegun.” This is a prohibited ex post facto in the purest sense.
Please don't give them any ideas. I can only count to 21 as it is.
And what the government has. Government always exempts itself.Many people in USA can't wait for this to happen to all weapons. If it was put to a vote all weapons in this country would be destroyed except what the criminals have.
I wonder if this deters future panic buying knowing you may pay 400 for a 100 item you later have to destroy with no compensation
